Red Cross officials of South and North Korea have exchanged lists of candidates for two rounds of family reunions that will be held via video link at the end of this month and early next month.

The South’s Red Cross officials said Tuesday that they had confirmed the whereabouts of some one-hundred out of the one-hundred-20 family members the North had requested confirmation on and had conveyed the list to the North’s officials.

Meanwhile, North Korea confirmed the whereabouts of 67 family members out of one-hundred-20 on whom the South had requested confirmation.

Earlier in August, 40 separated family members - 20 each from the two Koreas - held video reunions with their long-lost kin across the border.

The two Koreas linked fiber optic cables connecting Munsan, Gyeonggi Province, with the North Korean border city of Gaesong in July in preparation for the event.
